 I attempted to use a D-Link DGE-500T card this weekend on 5.1-RELEASE

 provide support for this card?  If there is already support for it (which
 may be the case) then which driver is it using?  I tried a GENERIC kernel
 with all the default drivers, but it diddnt work with them.  I can
 eventually get dmesg output again, but I'd need to bring the server down to
 put the card back in.  Any help is more than welcome.  Thank you!

This card's chipset is the NatSemi gigE chipset, which is
supported by the nge(4) driver.  However, as nge(4) cards are
relatively uncommon, support is not enabled by default in the
GENERIC kernel.  You can load the if_nge module, however.

kldload if_nge

In fact, the only gigE chipset common enough to make it into
GENERIC is the Broadcom, supported by bge(4).

2003-08-09 Thread Charlie Schluting
  Anyone know what's up with that? Can anyone give me the rundown on
  how/what FreeBSD does at boot time to start the network interface? Maybe
  something is supposed to be running that script, but isn't? Another
  missing script?
 
 Upon boot up, FreeBSD runs the /etc/rc script.  Check that you have the
 latest rc script by comparing it with the one in /usr/src/etc.

 diff -u /etc/rc /usr/src/etc/rc

 There should be no differences between these files.  You should also have
 the following rc* files in the /etc directory:

 # ls /etc/rc*
 /etc/rc /etc/rc.firewall6   /etc/rc.sendmail
 /etc/rc.subr
 /etc/rc.conf/etc/rc.firewall/etc/rc.resume
 /etc/rc.shutdown/etc/rc.suspend

 Also the /etc/rc.d directory should contain 145 scripts.

:-)
Ah, yes. Thank you so much!
It was the /etc/rc file. evilness. I told it not to move the new one in
because it looked like it was just deleting my old one.

Mergemaster is great, but if you don't know certian files need to
change, it doesn't help much. I knew to be careful when I saw it wanted
to give me a default passwd file, but I suppose I was too careful.

Oh, btw, my /etc/rc.d/ has 115 files, but everything works. Strange.

Thanks to everyone!

Yes.  Your tag for ports should be '.', so:

*default tag=.

not

*default tag=RELENG_5_1

There is no such animal and that is why it deleted all of your ports
instead of updating them.  In addition, specifying 'ports-all' is
sufficient ('ports-base' is not needed unless you are only cvsup'ing
individual collections).

  Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll wait a bit longer.
 
 Well, I did some experimenting yesterday with the ACPI code on my IBM
 T30 and learned one thing...if you plan on suspending, you need to set
 a sleep delay. Before I set the delay I had some nasty problems
 because power went away immediately and the disk cache did not have a
 chance to flush (ouch!) and left the display where it should not be.
 
 I noticed that Windows XP has a delay of about 5 seconds. I set the
 sysctl and tried again and things went MUCH better. The suspend didn't
 leave the disk corrupt (whew!) and the display dropped to low
 resolution before the graphics was shut down and switched back on
 resume! My Radeon M7 even retained sync.
 
 Of course, the USB driver simply does not recover from a suspend on
 ACPI and this should be fixed before too long. Also, the backlight
 stays on making the suspend NVU (not very useful). But it is a huge
 improvement and adding a delay MAY help a lot of other laptop
 suspend/resume areas. 
 
 Whether this will help th I5000 problems, I can't say, but it seems
 like suspend/resume is the most common show-stopper for ACPI on
 laptops, so it's worth a shot. If there is a trend that indicates that
 a short delay in suspending fixes a number of problems, the default
 delay should probably be modified from 0 to 4 or 5.

I tried your suggestion, but this just prolonged the inevitable for 5
seconds.  The laptop still remained dead to all input and no video after
resume.

 Having had a positive experience thus far with 5.1-RELEASE 
 and -current beyond
 that on one of the new boxes I recently built, it is now time 
 to build up the
 dual-boot system (BSD for me, WinXP for the wife ;). I've 
 read different
 reports (some from laptop users) about using the WinXP loader 
 to boot FreeBSD
 and I've also read reports that people used the standard 
 boot-easy to boot both
 (while even others using GRUB).
 
 Are there currently any issues with dual-booting 5.1-RELEASE 
 and/or -current
 along with Windows XP (probably SP1)? This would be on the 
 same physical
 disk. What do you other -current users who are faced with 
 dual booting XP do
 for the most part?
 
 Thanks,

Re: ipfw - default to accept + bootp = confusion.

On Thursday, August 7, 2003, at 12:22  AM, Juli Mallett wrote:

Does someone have any idea what approach to take for the following
scenario?  I'm leaning towards a compile time failure, or an 
informative
panic at the beginning of bootp...

You have IPFIREWALL, but not the default to accept option, and you have
BOOTP.  The BOOTP stuff will fail in sosend with EACCESS (informatively
printed as 13), because of IPFW, and this may be slightly non-obvious
to people who haven't dealt with early ipfw interference before.
If not compile time failure / panic, I'd say probably we want some way
to notify a user in general of ipfw stopping pre-init operation, but I
don't want to add the concept of runlevels, and don't know if there's
anything there currently to do detection of if we've hit that point 
yet.
If the default rule controlled by IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT,
default_rule.cmd[0].opcode, were made accessible via a sysctl.
then bootp could check it and produce an informative message.
Or, if possible try to insert a rule into the kernel restrictive enough 
to
be safe.  On the one hand it's a firewall, and you don't want to be
making assumptions about trust on behalf of the user.  On the other
hand, we just accepted a kernel from someone, and now want
to get some data for a root partition, so if we cannot trust the host 
we're
booting from, what's the point?

Given the above, would it be possible, to embed a small function
taking just a pair of addresses and masks, and use that to add a rule 
so that
this process could continue? After using sysctl to verify the 
predicament,
you could then try installing one (or a few) rules to trust the machines
that are booting us.  Trust the server running bootpd, trust the dchp 
and
nfs server, or just trust the network+submask in a single rule.

the following is just a rough guess from looking at ip_fw.c.
I don't know how far off it is to being valid.
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_RAW);
if (s  0)
err(EX_UNAVAILABLE, socket);
memset(rule, 0, sizeof rule);
rule.fw_flg |= IP_FW_F_ACCEPT;
rule.fw_prot = IPPROTO_IP;
rule.fw_src =  /* the bootp servers address
rule.fw_smsk = ~0; /* Does all 1s mean just from that host? */
rule.fw_dst =  /* Is our addr known yet? */
 rule.fw_dmsk = ??;
	rule.fw_flg |= (IP_FW_F_OUT|IP_FW_F_IN); /* you could do both 
directions */
i = sizeof(rule);
if (getsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_FW_ADD, rule, i) == -1)
err(EX_UNAVAILABLE, getsockopt(%s), IP_FW_ADD);

Is any of this reasonable or I am just being naive? (I'm new here.)

 What does a hibernation partition look like?
 
 My dell has a 31 meg partition that I havn't touched and my FreeBSD
 partition.

Most laptops have the capability of sleeping in two modes.

1. suspend where most of the system is powered off, but the memory is
kept on so that the system can pick up right where it left off (except
for drivers re-initing hardware) when the system is resumed.

2. Hibernate where the contents of memory and some system registers
are written ti a pore-allocated space on disk, usually a dedicated
partition. The boot is then tagged that the hibernation partition is
active and the systems is power completely off. On powering up, the
BIOS will detect that i=the system was in hibernation and reload the
memory and registers and resuming where the system left off. Hardware
must still be re-initialized and it's up to the drivers to handle
this.

Suspend is faster, but continues limited battery drain. Hibernation
takes a while to stop and start and requires a dedicated partition
(slice), but the system is totally off while in hibernation.

I don't know if all laptops support both, but every one I have used
does. IBM has a stand-alone tool on it's web site that creates a
hibernation partition on ThinkPads (which I use). You probably need to
check with the manufacturer of your system to see what is available.

dhclient problem with xl0

2003-08-09 Thread Craig Rodrigues
Hi,

I just did a cvsup of -CURRENT and rebuilt the world.
dhclient doesn't seem to work for me any more.
It looks like a problem with dhclient, and not the 
kernel, because an older version of dhclient works fine.

Here is the output of dhclient -v -d xl0

IS it possible for you to duplicate without the -j4?

like a simple make buildworld?

Your I/O controller maybe not able to keep up.
